Seftali's Adventure Travels in the Middle East -The Heart of the Nomad - Lone woman traveling

One right to which few individuals care to lay claim is the right to wander, life on the roads is liberty: one day bravely to throw off the shackles with which modern life and the weakness of our heart encumber us, in a pretence of liberty; to arm oneself with the symbolic staff and bundle and run away! Selfish happiness perhaps. But happiness indeed for those able to appreciate it. (Isabelle Eberhard, 1901) "Traveling - First it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller" -

About Me

My photo
Seftali's Travel
Germany
I feel like an angel condemned to roam this world, so I might as well make the most of it. Read my experiences. I have been to 43 different countries so far, and the Mediterranean and the Middle East are my favourite places. "All day I think about it, then at night I say it. Where did I come from, and what am I supposed to be doing? I have no idea. My soul is from elsewhere, I'm sure of that, and I intend to end up there. If I could taste one sip of an answer, I could break out of this prison for drunks. I didn't come here of my own accord, and I can't leave that way. Whoever brought me here will have to take me home."(Rumi) The heart’s tears are the bells of the caravan The heart’s tears are the traveler’s native land Ghazi ad-Din Khan Nizam
